I was running Plex, Jellyfin, Nginx, rtorrent with 3k torrents and few other containers and they were running on a very old machine with 4GB of RAM and only 2GB were really used.

Hello

Note that I am only interested in the technical details and I already have alternative for remote access.

As you may know Plex made some changes recently and remote access became a paid feature.

At first I thought that only people using plex.tv who will be impacted as they are using their relay feature. But I was surprised that accessing the server by its public IP is considered as a remote access (it make sense though).

So I thought that putting Plex behind a reverse proxy in the same network will solve the issue. Plex will see a local connection from the reverse proxy and treat it as a direct access. But still Plex detect that as a remote access. I even tweaked the host and headers passed by reverse proxy with no success.

Plex even consider accessing the server using a local domain as a remote access.

So I tested tailscale, I ran it on the server and tried to access Plex using the assigned IP but my access is considered a remote access. Now I ran tailscale on the client and accessing Plex from it is considered a direct access.

At first I thought Plex was checking the url but it doesn't seem to be the case.

Can someone explain me how does Plex detect remote vs local access?

Like abused wives can easily escape and do their life without repercussions. It isn't a rule to favor abused wives.

Android devices dominate in a lot of countries, especially Asian countries, where our growth in those regions in the last few years has boosted Android’s user base.

I think the decrease is mostly due to this.

People just need to stop doing it. In my city in France, one restaurant started using the POS with the tip screen and people just choose to not tip and they completely disabled the screen after a few weeks. But still some business do push for it.

And Homicide. When I started watching it, I was surprised when some episodes ended but the investigation didn't lead to anything and the cops didn't really care.

In The Wire, I really liked when the cop found out the code used by dealers. He started saying "Those kids didn't go to school so the code should be simple..."

Sometimes I ended up with +50 tabs because I just don't close them. But when the computer restart and Firefox ask me to restore them or start a new session, I always go for a new session. And I never felt that I lost something.

Same here, my CEO and other board directors did a long video telling that we released an impressive AI feature that will change the world and they didn't even explain what the feature is. It is nothing than text summarizer that will extract relevant keywords. We already did that without LLM. Now in the company, people working on AI things are getting promotion and raises.

If you have direct access to your server from the outside, then you are concerned about these changes. Am I mistaken?

By the way why the pope even accepted (he or someone of his entourage) to meet with JD Vance?

When I started working for my current company there were really few meetings and I didn't know that it was possible. Everywhere I worked we had all the Scrum meetings and tech discussions meetings. At that time it was relatively a small company but not that small.

Now the company is getting bigger and some persons try to bring all the scrum shit. Even for small features, we do meetings to discuss them and last for hours. Some meetings have a big agenda that we always only tackle half of it. Sometimes we decide to do something with big impact and then someone suggests to include a person from another that doesn't even know our scope. And then we get "maybe we shouldn't do this as it will maybe have some negative impacts", "maybe we should add an exception" without even giving data to support their claim.

I don't know but check out the show All in the Family which was aired in the 70s. I don't think they have exaggerated the character of Archie Bunker. I really think that there were many people like him during that era. And he is exactly like the pro Trump that we are seeing right now.

I remember him saying in one episode "Nixon is intelligent as he knows how to avoid paying taxes". That argument comes up from pro Trump people.
